Make sure that you're building the sun happy meal ethernet card, and
load the module if you're building it as a module.  I think it's sun-hme.

As for building x, you want to

emerge xorg-x11

It looks like your profile might be old, what does
ls -lad /etc/make.profile

output?  Note, don't add a trailing slash to make.profile
